ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'keyboard'

[Patrickvdh]

Hello,

I try to run whisper-writer, but this message comes up : ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'keyboard'

pv@portpat:~/whisper-writer$ python3 run.py Starting WhisperWriter... Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/pv/whisper-writer/src/main.py", line 6, in import keyboard ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'keyboard'

Any idea to help ?

thanks, patrick

Hi Patrick,

Did you follow all the directions in the Installation part of the Readme, including creating and activating a virtual Python environment?

My guess would be you haven't run the command pip install -r requirements.txt. This should install all the required Python modules, including keyboard.

Please let me know if you have followed all the directions and run all the commands and are still encountering this issue. If that's the case, please also let me know what platform you are running WhisperWriter on and which version of Python you are using.

Thanks, Sav

Hi Savbell, Thanks for your answer. I've been trough all installation procedure. When running pip install -r requirements.txt, an error occured :

ERROR: Cannot install -r requirements.txt (line 14) and av==10.0.0 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by: The user requested av==10.0.0 faster-whisper 0.10.0 depends on av==11.*

Any suggestion ? thanks, patrick Ubuntu 22.04

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your response! What you're encountering is an error that has since been fixed in the latest commits. Try running git pull to update requirements.txt to the latest version (it should look like this, with av==11.0.0 on line 8). Then try running pip install -r requirements.txt again and let me know if that works!

Cheers, Sav

Hi Sav, thanks for your help.

Pip install -r requirements.txt report this warning :

Then when running python3 run.py

Sorry not to be able to understand these. Any idea to sole it ?

thanks, patrick

Hi Patrick,

It looks like the error is indicating the PortAudio library is either not installed or can't be found. You can try installing the PortAudio development package:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install libportaudio2 libportaudiocpp0 portaudio19-dev

And then reinstalling sounddevice:

pip uninstall sounddevice
pip install sounddevice

Hopefully that resolves your issue! Please let me know if it doesn't.

Thanks, Sav

Thanks for any suggestion, patrick

Hi Patrick,

I'm sorry you're running into so many errors trying to install the packages! This error seems to be due to a missing Python.h header file. It may not be installed on your system, in which case the solution would be to install the Python development headers:

sudo apt-get install python3-dev

And then you can try installing the packages again. I hope that helps!

Cheers, Sav
